The go-to city for Singaporeans who are keen to invest in Japanese real estate is often Tokyo, and the capital city has been a magnet for Singaporean investors looking to capitalise on the weak Yen at the moment.
But the price of investment-grade residential properties in Tokyo is also the highest in the country, and this has prompted many investors to turn their attention to other fast-growing cities. Osaka has emerged as one of the most compelling alternative residential property markets in Japan.
One of the newest developments in Osaka that has recently hit the market is The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki. Located in Shinsaibashi, one of Osaka’s most recognised lifestyle and commercial districts, the project offers investors access to an established neighbourhood with an existing rental demand pool.
Shinsaibashi is one of Osaka’s liveliest districts, with a plethora of retail, dining, entertainment, and convenient transport connectivity. Part of the name of the new project ‘ Tsuki’ is the Japanese word for the moon, and the developer says that it embodies the development’s elegance, consistency, and quiet brilliance.
The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki is also jointly developed by Singaporean developer Lian Beng Group and FMI Japan, whose parent company FM Investment is based in Singapore.
The challenge for many buyers today isn't access to information.
It's interpreting that information in a way that makes sense for their finances, goals, and stage of life.
Over time, that's also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.
Location Highlight: Shinsaibashi
If you’re unfamiliar with Osaka, Shinsaibashi is often described as that Japanese city’s equivalent to Singapore’s Orchard Road shopping belt. Coupled with the neighbouring Dotonbori and Namba districts, it forms part of the city’s urban core and is one of the most visited districts in Japan.
The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki is just a short walk from Nagahoribashi Station and within walking distance of Shinsaibashi Station, placing residents close to major employment centres, shopping streets, restaurants, and tourist attractions.
The area’s broad appeal is why it attracts a diverse tenant pool that ranges from local professionals and expatriates, to long-stay visitors and international travellers.
Prime central locations like Shinsaibashi often face a simple challenge: there are only so many sites available. Unlike emerging districts where new developments can continue to enter the market, opportunities within established city-centre neighbourhoods tend to be more limited.
That makes new projects like The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki uncommon in this area. Buyers and investors don’t just purchase a property within an established district, but into one of Osaka’s most established and sought-after locations. Shinsaibashi’s allure – which stems from its convenience, lifestyle offerings, and connectivity – has been proven for decades.
Designed For Overseas Owners
Owning an overseas property comes with challenges that many first-time buyers underestimate. Tenant support, language barriers, and day-to-day issues can quickly become difficult when you’re managing a property, or a portfolio of properties, in a different country.
This is a niche where FMI Japan has been able to grow quickly in recent years, capitalising on strong investment demand from Singapore-based investors. At The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki, it offers concierge services designed with international residents in mind.
Whether helping residents navigate local services, or providing assistance during their stay, the support structure set up by FMI Japan helps reduce the operational burden that landlords face when it comes to managing their overseas assets.
The 92 unit development is a 14-storey development with a mix of one- and two-bedroom units, and units come with balconies. Typical units range from 358 – 678 sq ft. The two-bedroom units are worth taking note because it is increasingly rare to see new developments in Shinsaibashi that also offer this type of unit configuration.
There are also a pair of three-bedroom penthouse units, of 1,235 sq ft and 1,435 sq ft.
Each of the units feature a contemporary Japanese interior design with efficient layouts tailored to urban living. Each unit also comes with a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom with a bathtub, as well as laundry facilities.
Overall, the layouts make effective use of space and provide flexibility for different lifestyles. The larger homes can accommodate guest rooms, studies, or home offices, whilst the penthouses offer something increasingly rare in central Osaka: meaningful private outdoor space in one of the city’s most vibrant neighbourhoods.
According to FMI Japan, units at The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki start from S$547,000.
Flagship Amenities With Everyday Practicality
As FMI Japan’s flagship project, The Peak Shinsaibashi Tsuki incorporates facilities more commonly associated with luxury serviced residences than conventional residences. Residents enjoy access to a 24-hour gym, executive business lounge, parcel storage facilities, hotel-style arrival experience, and dedicated parking for selected units.
In a dense urban district like central Osaka, amenities such as resident parking and round-the-clock fitness facilities are especially valuable, and this helps the project stand apart from the handful of competing city-centre developments.
